Purchased mine promptly, but am now procrastinating on getting it on its way. My best guess is that I’ll mail it Monday, since I’ll also need to mail **amarinth** my copy of the Mormon _Pride and Prejudice_ for her upcoming P&P fest over the holidays. ---

There is a semi-Bollywoodish version of it that I’ve watched several times what I cannot remember for the life of me what the title is. When my brain cramp ends, I’ll let you know. ---

[QUOTE=whiterabbit] I’m in. I’ve never done one of these, but it sounds fun! I don’t know what I’d want or not. Hmm. Clothes are out, unless we’re talking funny socks or something, because I’m impossible to fit. My favorite color is dark blue. I love candles and celestial themed stuff. But really, surprise me. It’s more fun that way. [/QUOTE] Pssst, in addtion to email and PM, I’ll mention here that **Anaamika** said you typoed your PO box…the package went towards it starting yesterday so you may want to give the post office a heads-up. ---
